At Home With the Johnsons

AI is everywhere - but how much do we really understand about how it's shaping our lives and businesses?
In this episode, Lisa sits down with software engineer and AI expert Katrina Young to demystify the world of artificial intelligence. From predictive text to generative models like ChatGPT, Katrina breaks down the types of AI many of us have been using for years - often without even realising.
They explore how AI is transforming the future of business, the fine line between efficiency and losing your unique voice, and what happens when AI gets it wrong.
What We Cover in This Episode:
The everyday AI tools you've been using without even knowing it
Why ChatGPT sometimes hallucinates and how to spot fake sources
How AI can tailor its output to your personal brand using Google Analytics data
The secret to using AI without sounding like everyone else
Training AI models to give better, more personalised results
The rise of AI agents as assistants, not replacements
How Katrina built an AI model to optimise her health with personalised supplement advice
The hidden biases in AI and why we need to be aware of them
Why AI still can't replicate critical thinking, empathy, or human expertise
Katrina's insights will inspire you to think differently about AI - not as something to fear, but as a powerful tool to audit, optimise, and elevate your life and business.

ADHD - Is It A Real Thing? | S2 E3
ADHD - everyone seems to be talking about it, but are we really understanding it?
In this episode, Lisa shares a frustrating experience with suppliers who failed to deliver on their promises, citing ADHD as the reason. It sparked a bigger conversation: Is ADHD being overdiagnosed? Are people using it as an excuse for poor performance, or is modern life making symptoms worse?
To help unpack these questions, we're joined by ADHD expert Kim Raine. She shares her insights on how the condition affects adults, why awareness has skyrocketed, and the fine line between validation and excuse-making.
We also discuss:
The explosion of ADHD diagnoses - awareness vs. actual prevalence
Whether ADHD is a superpower or a struggle (or both!)
The impact of modern life on ADHD symptoms
Why so many adults are only now being diagnosed
How women with ADHD face unique challenges, especially during menopause
The booming ADHD industry - who's benefiting from the rise in self-diagnosis?
With an NHS backlog of eight years for ADHD assessments and growing demand for solutions, we explore what actually helps, beyond just medication.
Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on a condition that's shaping conversations everywhere.

What happens when you're faced with your own mortality? For most, the idea of death is terrifying - but not for Annie Bennett.
In this deeply moving episode, Annie opens up about her cancer diagnosis, how it progressed to the bones, and why she refuses to let fear take over.

Faced with the terminality and unpredictability of life, Annie made a powerful choice about how to spend her time: by starting her own Community Interest Company (CIC) to support young adults facing cancer, particularly those without a strong support system.

She shares her experiences navigating the healthcare system, the often-overlooked challenges for young adults dealing with a diagnosis, and the incredible effect of attitude on prognosis.
Lisa also weighs in with her thoughts on how AI could one day help us survive life-threatening conditions and what the future of medicine might look like.
This conversation is a raw, thought-provoking look at life, death, legacy, and the mindset shift that comes with facing the inevitable.

What We Cover in This Episode:
Annie's experience of being diagnosed with cancer and how it progressed
The existential weight of death and why she doesn't fear it
Why worrying is pointless - and what to do instead
The reality of life's unpredictability and how to make peace with it

Passive income - sounds like a dream, right? But is it really as effortless as people make it seem? 

In this episode, we're breaking down the truth about passive income, what it actually looks like, and why most people misunderstand how it works.
We also tackle the biggest mindset blocks that stop people from getting started - like thinking they're not an expert or that the market is already too crowded.

Spoiler: If people are making money doing Joe Wicks-style bootcamps in the park, then there's room for your idea too!
Whether it's cutting flowers, navigating Disneyland with toddlers, or even handling a divorce amicably, almost anything can be turned into a course or passive income stream.

We'll share the key to what it really takes to start a business based on passive income (side note: it's more semi-passive than being absolutely passive, before you think you'll be on holiday, sipping cocktails, doing absolutely no work thinking you'll still make money!)
If you're not yet making money in a passive or semi-passive way, we've got something for you - join our free challenge: Race to Recurring Revenue

What We Cover in This Episode:


What passive income actually is (and what it isn't!)
Why 'not being an expert' is NOT a valid excuse
How just about anything can be monetised (yes, even your unique life experiences!!!)
Why research is the most important step when starting a passive income business
The patience required to grow an audience (hint: it's not instant)

Is getting older a blessing or a curse? In this episode, we're tackling the age-old debate (pun intended) about the ups and downs of growing older.
Sam's all about finding the silver linings - there's good stuff and bad stuff, but it's not all doom and gloom.

Lisa, on the other hand? Let's just say she's firmly in the "it's all downhill from here" camp, and Sam is more than happy to challenge her on that!
But as the conversation unfolds, they touch on some surprising topics, from the right to be grumpy and whinge, to the prospect of the menopause, and to their evolving views on plastic surgery (spoiler: Lisa might be warming up to the idea of a facelift).
Whether you're team "age is just a number" or team "pass me the anti-aging cream," this episode will have you laughing, nodding along, and maybe even rethinking how you feel about growing older.
